Nice Chocolate Muffins

Image
  These ones may not look very tempting but here's the story. I was planning on making some chocolate cupcakes for my dad's birthday. I was following this recipe when I realized I poured too much water to the batter. I halved the recipe but forgot to halved the amount of water. It was too runny. I couldn't stand wasting butter and cocoa so I did a quick recipe-switch. I remembered having successfully made muffins from pancake batter before so I turned this runny batter into one. The difference is, when you need a well-mixed batter for making pancakes, you can't do that when baking muffins. You need the batter to be lumpy. Long story short, when I tasted the result I was pretty much satisfied. They had a nice, soft and moist texture. So much better from the ones I made before. So much for a once-failed batter, don't you think? I am so gonna make them again next time so I wrote down the recipe before I forget. Nice Chocolate Muffins by Cokelatia 1/2 cups

Strawberry Madness

So my mom held a lunch party at her house and I was planning to make some fruit tartlets for dessert. A day before the party she went to do grocery shopping and I asked her to bought some strawberries for the topping. Later that day she called and told me that she couldn't find them at the supermarket. The next morning on the way to mom's I stopped at Cihapit Market to buy them. The strawberries were so big and red that I bought so many of them, only to find when I got at mom's that she had also bought many strawberries from a door-to-door salesgirl that morning. So here are the fruit tartlets, all strawberry! After batches of strawberry tartlets there were still so many strawberries left and even my son was getting bored of eating them. So the next day I turned them into pie, along with some pineapple. Pineapple & Strawberry Pie Fruit Tartlets Recipe Strawberry Pie Recipe

A pandan-flavored sponge cake with butter cream and shredded cheddar cheese topping, a well-known combination of sweet and savory, delish! To make it even better you could replace the butter cream with cream cheese frosting. Yum! Pandan Cake With Cheese Filling Recipe
